Upma is a common breakfast dish in many parts of India. Aval Upma is made using Poha (flattend rice flakes). It's one of the very easy to make and that too quickly. In this recipe, I have added vegetables to make the upma filling and nutritious. It makes a great lunch box recipe as well as evening snack. Since we are also adding a tablespoon of lemon, this Upma will have a mix of salty, tangy and sweet taste which will be liked by everyone in the family

- Use Vegetable of your choice to make it Richer - In this recipe I have added Carrot and Beans. But you can also add potato / cauliflower to make it rich and tastier
- Add Crunchiness to the upma - Add roasted peanuts / cahshews to add extra crunchiness to the upma
